FALL AND WINTER SEASONAL HIGHLIGHTS WINTER DOG CELLARS- DC RETAIL EDITION

OUR FAVORITE SEASONS…..

The magical days are here….

Autumn arrives, a painter's brush in hand, and with each stroke, the world transforms.

Leaves burst into flames of red and gold, falling like whispered secrets to the earth. The air carries a bittersweet nostalgia, as nature readies itself for a quiet slumber. Fall is a season of both melancholy and beauty, where life's cycles are painted in vibrant, fading hues.

And then Winter descends with icy breath, draping the world in a shroud of stillness.

Nature's palette shifts to monochrome, as snowflakes dance, and a hushed peace settles upon the land. In the heart of winter, time stands still, and the world awaits the reawakening of spring……..

And delicious beer is a timeless constant in these magical seasons of celebration and fellowship! A time when IPAs and lagers give way to stouts and other festively spiced brews of high gravity and even higher spirits. Big beers to carry us through the autumn winds and the silent snowy nights; and festive beers to bring great tidings of seasonal joy!

We proudly present our focus offerings for Fall and Winter 2023/24!

Cheers!

Gluhwein, or mulled wine, is a warm and aromatic concoction traditionally enjoyed during the colder months, especially around the holiday season.

OUD BEERSEL Green Walnut 2022- Limited USA return ‘Green Walnut’ is a surprising and innovative offering from Oud Beersel.

Green Walnut is made with real walnuts harvested from the Oud Beersel orchard. During the summer harvest, the still green walnuts are gathered and added to lambic beer previously matured in wooden wine barrels. The initial bitterness which is extracted from the walnuts is tempered during the ripening of the walnut Lambic. This results in a delicate balance between the light sourness of the Lambic beer and the bitterness of the green walnuts. The wooden wine barrels provide a subtle touch of red fruits to the beer. 6.5 ABV Available in 6x750ml for $125 per case
